Dracula Mountain was the second live-only cover performed by Muse, after [[tourette's (live)|tourette's]] in 1994, and was performed as a special intro on the last two dates of 2004 at Earls Court. The original song is somewhat different than Muse's version, though it remains similar. The song is only drum and bass, though Chris plays the bass in a way to Royal Blood in that it sounds very much like an electric guitar. After these two performances, Dracula Mountain was performed a handful of times at random dates on the following tour in 2005. None of these performances were recorded as the song was performed only at gigs that took place before those that were recorded (between 21 April 2005 and 30 April 2005; no other dates from this tour were recorded). The only exception, 28 April 2005, was only partially video recorded and Dracula Mountain was not included in this recording.

The band continued to perform it at every other date until the end of the American tour. Dracula Mountain was given a regular spot on the Unsustainable Stadium Tour and appeared at nearly every date on the tour.
